This week on The Final Frontier Podcast, we revisit Star Trek: The Original Series (Season 2, Episode 14) — “Wolf in the Fold” — the episode that somehow decides, “You know what this show needs?” JACK THE RIPPER… in SPACE.
We break down everything that makes this one a weirdly entertaining (and occasionally problematic) TOS entry: the “pleasure planet” vibes, the unintentionally hilarious moments, and the absolutely wild turn where Scotty gets framed in a locked-room murder mystery that escalates into a full-on non-corporeal entity feeding on fear.
Highlights include:
-Why “Star Trek has gone woke” is a hilarious take (have you watched Star Trek… ever?)
-The Argelius nightclub cold open (strip club? brothel? yes)
-Scotty as the prime suspect in a “Jack the Ripper style” case
-he prosecutor who is also the voice of Piglet (and once you hear it, you can’t unhear it)
-How much sexism is too much sexism?
If you love classic Trek, TOS deep dives, and laughing at the moments where 1967 television absolutely swings for the fences, you’ll have a blast with this one.
